    I absolutely love him but I can see why the industry didn't take to him. His tracks were just not that exciting, when you compare it to other people. He was a genius, he had an understanding of the guitar that no one ever reached, but his manager dumped him and he was without any mentor or direction. I love Nick, but let's not pretend that he was a perfect fit for the 1970 music scene.

      The exact meaning behind Ben Howard's art whether its his lyrics or album covers is something he himself wouldn't explain, so we can only guess. What I can tell you however is that the album cover for 'is it?' is made by a graphic designer called Bráulio Amado (you can find him on Instagram) to me it perfectly encapsulates Ben's confusing view of the world around him when he was experiencing his TIA's

    I'll leave a kinder, less sarcastic comment now. Why couldn't this be an hour long? I would gladly listen to an hour of you deep-diving into the lyrics of Modest Mouse, because they are genuinely fascinating and could easily hold up an hour-long video essay. You clearly understand what Isaac Brock and his crew are trying to convey. There is so much to be said of their art and I'd love to listen to someone go through it with a fine tooth comb.

      Haha you definitely made a good point though! The main reason is that these videos take a long time to make and WWD would probably deserve a 10 minute + video on its own.

    I'll have to listen to this album with this in mind; I must admit, it's my least favorite of their albums. I don't hate it, but for me they just didn't change it up enough. Like I loved the departure that was "Vide Noir," but... Well, speaking of which, I feel like a lot of people conflate absurdism with atheism, which, it's not that they don't go together but that it's far from a requirement. There's a whole lore to Lord Huron involving reincarnation and shit, and like... Even with that, ESPECIALLY with that, maybe... Because we're talking about eternal existence. Far from being an extrapolation, isn't eternity baked right into The Myth of Sisyphus? There's also Nietzsche's eternal return... All this shit has mystic subtext. Partly because like Nietzsche was drawing from Schopenhauer, who was drawing from Hindu thought, and partly because... Well, they were also in conversation with like Plato, who I'm convinced was drawing from a mystic tradition that goes back to prehistory. Anyway, good to know that Lord Huron actually did put a lot of thought into this album, because I really do like them a lot. Lord Huron was my favorite band until I discovered my-favorite-band-of-all-time-who-changed-my-life The Oh Hellos. Started out as... Well, they never called themselves a Christian band because they didn't want to be exclusive, and I definitely do relate to their earlier stuff on the level of broad spirituality. But their Anemoi Cycle (EPs Notos, Eurus, Boreas, and Zephyrus) is some next level shit. It's like a personal journey of deconstruction of fundamentalism and nationalism and all that that entails, and has some intense thematic progression and recontextualization, imagery from both Greek and Biblical mythology, motifs (both lyrical and melodical) (some of the latter are thematic leitmotifs), word-play... And it's all SO deeply felt and relevant! I am OBSESSED! I've spent a WHOLE bunch of time analyzing their music, flew from Georgia to Rhode Island earlier this year just to see them at the Newport Folk Festival... To be fair, I probably wouldn't have done that if they were still touring regularly (this was the first time they'd performed in 6 years). On the other hand, I don't think I would've done that for anyone else. Maybe Darlingside. But that's another story!

    I had never heard of him or his music til I saw the movie Serendipity and The Lakehouse. Loved it right away and did some research on him. Was so saddened by his story. I don't know what made him so unhappy. Could've been a chemical imbalance. I think he would've been 77 this year. My heart goes out to his family. I have a musician child that I worry about. Very shy, quiet, sensitive, loner, not social, can get depressed. All I can do is be there, pray and hope for the best.

    You missed his greatest collaborations, look for his Paul Hartnoll video on you tube, his first directing job for the band money and his short film with Feist. He is also a long time friend of the music producer Flood.

    I don't think it's correct to say that "childhood trauma" is one of the themes of "Five Leaves Left". I think his sister might disagree. It is a theory - touched on in Trevor Dann's book - which seems to have no solid basis in fact. Unless you can quote me lyrics to the contrary.
